“…The positive association between functional mobility and power intervention has been reported in previous studies (5,13,18) . The possible biological mechanisms related to this improvement would be the increase in muscle strength and power, cross-sectional area, glucose tolerance, fast muscle fiber type and oxidative profile as described in the literature (27,13) .…”

“…The results demonstrated that PT exercises were effective in promoting clinically relevant differences in physical and emotional limitations in the elderly, and there were not many studies that verified the benefits of PT on quality of life (18,32) . The rhythm protocol also induced similar changes.…”

“…Despite the undoubted relevance of these health parameters, it is believed that at this stage of life individual health perceptions should be considered, supported by the theory that objective measures of physiological and functional anatomical parameters do not always coincide with the elderly's understanding of their condition (16,17) . In addition, some studies failed to identify benefits in the perception of functionality in the elderly without severe health conditions with only resistance exercises, (17,18) despite positive results achieved in aerobic activities (19) . In view of the above and seeking a greater understanding of the benefits of strength exercises performed with maximum velocity in the eccentric phase of execution in the health of the elderly, the present study was carried out, whose objective was to evaluate the repercussions of a power training protocol on the functional capacity and subjective health parameters in the elderly.…”

Introduction:The muscular strength exercises can be an effective intervention to prevent falls and to favor the functional capacity (FC) in the elderly. However, few studies have reported the benefits of power training (PT) and the subjective perception of the elderly on these activities. Objective: to evaluate the repercussions of a power training protocol on functional capacity and subjective health parameters in the elderly. Method: It was a prospective study involving 48 elderly people. Two groups were composed: a power training group (PG) with 22 participants with a mean age of 68.14 (5.46) years and the control group (CG) was composed of 32 elderly individuals aged 68.03 (4.83) years. Health-related quality of life was measured from the Medical Outcomes Study 36 -Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). The FC was measured by the Berg Balance and Time Up and Go tests. The PT was performed 2x/week, with duration of 50 min/session, for 14 weeks (first two weeks of adaptation; first six weeks 3X/10-15 repetitions of 40-50% of the Subjective Perceived Exertion (SPE) / 6 following weeks 3X/6-10 repetitions of 60-70% of the SPE). The CG performed rhythm activities with the same frequency and weekly duration. Result: It was observed favorable results in FC after 14 weeks of power training. There was also a positive evaluation of most sf-36 domains, with emphasis on physical and emotional aspects. However, the perception of the elderly in relation to the pain domain presented negative results. Conclusion: The PT positively influenced the FC, the physical and the emotional aspects of the elderly; negatively affected the pain and maintained the low risk of fall after 12 weeks of intervention, without presenting intercurrences during the intervention.

Context: Pathologic plantar flexion frequently occurs after operative repair of the Achilles tendon (AT) because of immobilization and non-weight bearing in the first weeks of traditional rehabilitation. Novel rehabilitation strategies that apply mobilization and weight bearing have been proposed, but their effects on medial gastrocnemius myotendinous junction displacement (MJD) and isometric plantar-flexion strength (PFS) are unknown.Objective: To compare the effects of 12 weeks of immediate versus traditional rehabilitation on MJD and PFS in patients with percutaneous AT repair and to compare AT rupture scores (ATRSs) during follow-up.Design: Controlled laboratory study. Setting: Human performance laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: A total of 26 amateur soccer players (age ¼ 42.3 6 9.7 years, body mass index ¼ 29.5 6 3.9 kg/m 2 ) with percutaneous AT repair. Intervention(s): Athletes were randomly divided into 2 groups: an immediate group, given physical therapy from day 1 to day 84, and a traditional group, given physical therapy from day 29 to day 84. We used repeated-measures analysis of variance to compare the data.Main Outcome Measure(s): We measured MJD and PFS at days 28 (fourth week), 56 (eighth week), and 84 (12th week) after AT repair.Results: After 12 weeks of rehabilitation, we observed a large clinically meaningful effect and statistical difference between groups. At day 28, the immediate group showed higher values for PFS (P ¼ .002), MJD (P ¼ .02), and ATRS (P ¼ .002) than the traditional group. At day 56, the immediate group presented higher values for MJD (P ¼ .02) and ATRS (P ¼ .009). At day 84, the immediate group registered more MJD (P ¼ .001).Conclusions: Compared with traditional rehabilitation, 12 weeks of immediate rehabilitation after percutaneous AT repair resulted in better MJD, PFS, and ATRS after 4 weeks; better MJD and ATRS after 8 weeks; and better MJD after 12 weeks.

RESUMOIntrodução: É bem descrito na literatura que o exercício físico de diferentes naturezas tem vários benefícios para a saúde de diferentes populações, no entanto, os programas de ginástica geral vêm recebendo pouca atenção quanto aos possíveis benefícios para a saúde de seus praticantes, especialmente para medidas de desempenho físico e para a capacidade de marcha. Objetivo: Avaliar a eficácia de um treinamento de ginástica geral sobre o VO2máx e a qualidade da marcha de idosos. Métodos: Selecionou-se um grupo de cento e vinte sujeitos com média de idade de 64,81 ± 2,71 anos, massa corporal de 66,97 ± 4,81 kg e estatura de 164,6 ± 4,81 cm de ambos os sexos. Utilizou-se o teste de 15 minutos de Balke para determinar o VO2máx e o Dynamic Gait Index para verificar a qualidade da marcha. O tratamento estatístico foi realizado por meio do teste de Wilcoxon para amostras relacionadas com significância de 5%. Resultados: Em todos os tratamentos houve diferença de VO2máx e os resultados do Dynamic Gait Index sugerem melhora na qualidade da marcha. Conclusão: Parece que o treinamento de ginástica geral proposto no presente estudo foi eficaz em melhorar o VO2máx e a qualidade de marcha do grupo selecionado.Descritores: autonomia pessoal; ginástica; marcha; exercício.
